Shopping bag
This is a vintage shopping bag dating from 7-8 years ago. It carried my birthday present at that time and has been hanging on my cupboard door ever since. Not that I am crazy about brands, but this was one of the best gifts ever.

The Fisher
Fishing on the river among reflections of trees with autumn colors, does it get more idyllic than that? Seen in Geneva, on the Rhône River. Autumn is already here.

Triangle pattern
One of my favourite buildings in Geneva, JTI. I love the reflections and triangular patterns. It gives it a very intriguing look.
Picture taken after working at the WMO, last session of the week, on Saturday afternoon.

The traveller
A try at fine art photography. Sometimes it takes a while till I get the image I fisrt saw in my mind before shooting. Had to take away all ugly elements from the pic till I got what I wanted. The pic was taken in Geneva in the afternoon, after working at the WMO. I felt inspired by the lines

Transit spaces, Geneva
As I was strollig around after lunch I entered this empty tunnel and got stunned by the circles and the light coming in from the sides. Transit spaces have something special, even when they are empty they have a sort of movement or echo in it.

Beware of Paparazzi!
Working at a technical conference on Oceanography in Geneva with my friend Magda. While she was interpreting I was paparazzing the booth. She was not too unpleased with the result. It is always nice working with friends. Another great day at WMO.

"A deux heures du matin" de Falk Richter, pièce de théâtre magnifiquement jouée par de jeunes acteurs talentueux sortant des Teintureries, École de Théâtre de Lausanne. Amazing theater play in Geneva Grutli Theater with young and promising talents.
It was tricky to take pics, since it is forbidden, but was worth the try. This scene was played while some actors were behind the scene producing these great shadows I couln't resist

High speed framing
The challenge was here to frame a picture on a train at 200 km/hour. In only one shot there are two overlapping images. The view on one side, geometric and rigid, and the reflection of the other side, a much softer Swiss landscape. Taken on a train from Bern to Geneva. Unfortunatelly, I have no idea what this intriguing building is.

Taking the floor,UPU, Bern, Switzerland
Today at the Universal Postal Union. This picture is a discarded one of a series of 5 for a UPU photo contest- Just knew today about it while interpreting for them, so spent all the breaks jumping up and down with my lumix first and then the Canon camera to get all done by today, since it was the last day you could send the pics. This one was taken from inside the interpreters' booth. A Delegate's speech.

The Beauty of the Curve
Discovering the universe of Renzo Piano in Bern, at the Paul Klee Museum (built in 2005). Detail.
The Italian Renzo Piano is an internationally renowned and distinguished architect. His work is marked by a predominant commitment which unifies the demands of technical, artistic, skilled, natural und social expectation. Since his design for the Centre Pompidou in Paris, Piano counts among the most international established architects. Known in Switzerland for the building of the Beyeler Fondation in Riehen near Basel, Piano was directly entrusted with the task to build the Paul Klee Museum by Maurice E. Müller.
